Trump... STOP SPENDING SO MUCH MONEY

Just like us regular people who need to limit the number of dolls our girls can get. They can get by with 2.

• Military parade on your birthday? Estimated cost of ~90 million?
  CANCEL IT NOW - we don't need it any more than my girls need another doll.
• Estimated $1 Billion cost to upgrade a 'free' (valued at $400m) plane from Qatar?
  CANCEL IT NOW - we don't need it any more than my girls need another doll.
• First President to attend the SuperBowl? (and leave early) Why at a cost of ~20 million?
  CANCEL ANY FUTURE SUCH EVENTS NOW - you get the drill; we don't need it.

I've grown tired of hearing how citizens need to tighten our belts while your tariffs destroy our budgets. Citizens are not doing well economically. You should understand that and act accordingly. Asking us to endure isn't nearly enough.

STOP spending so much money yourself - tighten your belt just as you've asked us to.

What about the golfing?

So I can’t figure this out.  There is a 4,000 page thread about how much of a waste of time it is to save such small amounts of $ and they’re all horrid nazis and all that jazz.   And this.   It’s almost like I think y’all hate this dude.

You left out the part where we’ve been spending $151 BILLION PER YEAR ON UNLAWFUL IMMIGRANTS.  get rid of them we don’t need them any more than your daughter needs more dolls. Stop spending money on non citizens and take care of those that are.

Yes they do, when it's clear that that's the direction we're going. Trumps proposal also has a monster deficit so either way we'll be more in the red than ever.

Quote

President Trump said that Walmart should stop blaming tariffs for rising prices while calling on the retail giant to “eat the tariffs.”

He added: “I’ll be watching and so will your customers!”

What a clown.

[JimmySpeaks]

At least the orange clown is making his own decisions.  Unlike the last four years

When you can't defend your position so you try to pivot to something totally irrelevant to the topic at hand.

"Memory holed"? What are you smoking? Why would you accuse me of that?

Had to look it up (because why would I remember it?) and it is:

"2023 – Former US President Donald Trump is indicted for his role in the January 6 United States Capitol attack, his third indictment in 2023"

So. Maybe you had me confused with someone else.

I hope so, nothing else makes any sense here at all.

good try

we were downgraded on our credit that day.

[Lipdrag]

Dudes, this is not on the politicians.  It is on the population.  Until we pass a balanced budget amendment and punish politicians on both sides of the aisle for deficits then we cannot blame them for doing exactly what we gave them the authority to do and allow them to do.

WE MUST REMOVE THEIR AUTHORITY TO SPEND IN DEFICIT.  PERIOD.

[Scouts Honor]

hopefully DOGE can help us get our credit rating back

 

not only wanted to...but if i remember right... they did.

All data shows that IRS agents are a good investment. They bring in more revenue by busting tax cheaters than they cost, given recent staffing ranges. 

The only real reason to cut IRS staff is to let more of the rich wingers to get away w hiding their money and cheating on their taxes. It's that simple. 

[Scouts Honor]

what do you consider rich?

have you memory holed that they were keeping track of $600 transactions? 

but again, you just let the point sail over your head

they want to audit us, not be audited

by those meddling kids

Why audit the IRS? What are we gonna save from that? I dont care if they do, but it's not gonna save jack squat. 

Yes, more audits on the tax cheaters are needed. 

Funny how the wingers want to audit the US govt but limit auditing of the sus tax returns. 

More winger hypocrisy. A dime a dozen.

[Scouts Honor]

again you trust the people who become millionaires after entering govt, but not the citizens in the country who made the money
